  • I think Bayern deserved to win as they are several steps above from us at both creating and finishing chances. It’s just that in the last decade, we were getting battered by teams like PSG, Real etc. and now, with a bit of luck, we could’ve defeated Bayern in the both rounds, that’s why all Gala fans sound like we played like the best football and complaining about refereeing etc. Because “Bayern 2-1 Galatasaray” is a surprising scoreboard as you guys are used to destroy what comes across you in the groups and it could be even surprising if ref gave that second yellow to Davies.

    We have some clear issues that I believe be resolved in a few months:

    • Terrible goal conversion rate
      • You cannot miss chances you get against Bayern but even against no-name teams in Super Lig, we usually have like 25 shoots and 3 something XG, 6 big chances and the score is 1-0
    • Fitness level
      • We do aggressive pressing and it just works imo. Like we give some chances at the back of course but that’s something that’s gonna happen regardless of the team. However, after 70 mins, the team gets so tired and the chances we give become a much bigger issue while we cannot press that effectively too. If we were able to increase that to maybe 80 mins, then it would be better.

    Still, I am proud of my team, we were not like a Pot 4 team, had some clear chances and I believe that we’ll make it to the Round of 16s.
